Mg
S

Sulfur

100

What type of bond exists when potassium and oxygen combine?

ionic bonds

100

In a bond between P and O, which atom do the electrons move closer to AND why?

closer to 0 because it is more electronegative

100

The bond angle of carbon dioxide.

What is 180?

100

Draw the ionic lewis structure for MgO

Mg +2 [ O ] -2 (8 dots around O)

200

The largest atomic radius out of the following elements:

Ga
B
Al


What is Gallium?

200

What type of bond is formed when two atoms share electrons to form a molecule

Covalent bond

200
Define a nonpolar covalent bond

Two nonmetals sharing electrons equally because they have the same electronegativities

200

The geometry of PCl3?

What is trigonal pyramidal?

200

Draw a lewis structure for NF3

see board

300

The element with the highest electronegativity of the following elements:

Si
N
Ga
O

What is Oxygen?

300

Name one property to you would predict a substance would have if it was made from an alkali metal and a halogen?

high melting point

brittle

can't conduct as solid

can conduct when dissolved in water

300
What is the driving force in a polar covalent bond

differences in electronegativity

300

How do lone pairs affect the bond angle

They minimize the bond angle

300

Draw a lewis structure for SCl2; indicate whether it is polar or nonpolar

see board

polar

400

This element would have the highest ionization energy in Period 2. 


What is Neon?

400

Why do metallic bonds have the property of malleability?

Delocalized/mobile electrons

400

The electronegativity of element A is 4.0, the electronegativity of element B is 3.1. What type of bond do they form?

polar covalent

400

The geometry of CF4.

tetrahedral

400

Why is CH4 nonpolar but CH3Cl polar?

CH4 has no lone pairs and all atoms bonded to the center atom are the same, not all the atoms are the same on CH3Cl

500

Elements X and Y are in the same group. X is in period 1 and Y is in period 5. Why does Y have a lower ionization energy than X

As you move down the group, Y is larger than X, so it is easier to remove the electron because of the larger distance

500

What type of bond would not conduct electricity as a solid, but will in the aqueous (dissolved in water) state?

Ionic bonds

500

A) 130

B) 850

C) 1200

A

500
